Hell Yeah (Pimp The System) (Real Version)
(Jay-Z)
We together on the same track now, baby!
Whatchu gon call us now?!
(Intro)
Holton Street, Dean Street (click clack)
Prezident (uh huh) nostril out (DPs) (Marcy)
Orange Al (RBGs) T-Town (Who wanna ride?)
Brooklyn, Come on, Come on
(Verse - stic.man)
Sittin in the living room on the floor
Hunger pain got me on some migraine ******t
But Im a maintain
****** got 2 or 3 dollars to my name
And my homies in the same boat going through the same thing
Ready for our cake, steady plottin for the paper
We been living in the dark since April
On the candle, gotta get a handle
My homie got a 25 automatic added to the gamble
****** get the phone book look up in the yellow page
Lemme tell you how we fend to get paid
We gonna order pizza and when we see the driver
We gonna stick the 25 up in his face
Lets ride, stepping outside like warriors
Head to the notorious Southside
One weapon to the four of us
Hiding in the corridor until we see the Dominos car headlights
White boy in the wrong place at the right time
Soon as the car door open up he mine
We roll up quick and put the pistol to his nose
By the look on his face he probably ******tted in his clothes
You know what this is, its a stic up
Gimme the do from your pickups
You ran into the wrong ******z
We running down the block hot with these pizza boxes
So we split up and met back at the apar******ent
(Chorus)
Hell yeah (yo aint you hungry my ******?)
Hell yeah (you wanna get paid my ******?)
Hell yeah (aint you tired of starving my ******?)
Hell yeah (well lets ride then)
Hell yeah, Hell yeah
(Verse - M-1 )
I know a way we can get paid
You can get down but you cant be afraid
Lets go to the DMV, and get a ID
The name says you but the face is me
Now its your turn take my paper work
Like 1, 2, 3 lets make it work
Then, fill out the credit card application
And its gonna be bout 3 weeks of waiting
For American Express, Discovery Card
Platinum Visa, Master Card
Cause, when you was spooked as ******t then we was targets
Now we just walk right up and say charge it
To the game we rocking brand names
Well known at Depar******ent Store chains
Even got the boys in the crew a few things
Po Po never know who to true blame
Store after store you know we kept rolling
Wait two weeks report the card stolen
Repeat this cycle like a like a laundry mat
Like a glitch in the system its hard to catch
Coming out the mall with the shopping bags
We can take it right back then get the cash
Yeah, get a friend and then do it again
Damn right thats how we paid the rent (hell yeah)
(Bridge - repeat 2x)
Got to get this paper
Im down for the caper, we steady on the grind
Its a daily struggle, we all gotta hustle
This is the way we survive
(Verse - Jay-Z)
As long as theres - drugs to be sold
I aint waiting for the system to plug up these holes
I aint slipping through the cracks
So Im at Portland, Oregon tryin to slip you these raps
The first black in the suburbs
Youd think I had extasy, percocet, and plus syrup
The way the cops converged, they ****** up my swerve
The first young buck that I served
I thought back to the block
I never seen a cop when I was out there
They never came out there
And out there, I was slinging crack to live
Im only slinging raps to your kids
Im only trying to show you how black ******z live
But you dont want your little ones acting like this
Lil Amy told Becky , Becky told Jenny
And now they all know the skinny
Lil Joey got his durag on
Driving down the street blasting Tupacs song (Thug Life baby!)
But Billy like Sue, got his blue rag on
Now before you know it, you backing em
Now the police, got me in the middle of the street
Trying to beat me blue, black and orange
Im like hold up, who you smacking on?
Im only trying to eat what you snacking on
(Chorus) (Jay-Z)
Hell yeah (yall dont like that do you?)
Hell yeah (you ** **** up the hood ****** right back to you)
Hell yeah (you know we tired of starving my ******)
Hell yeah (lets ride) hell yeahhh ( lets ride)
(Bridge - repeat 2x) (w/ Jay-Z ad-libs)
If you claiming gangsta
Then bang on the system
And show that you ready to ride
Till we get our freedom
We got to get over
We steady on the grind
